Hi everyone and welcome to the March 2017 edition of the Which Is Best?
Last month I placed Turrican and Turrican II against each other and after a mega battle with the votes I can announce Turrican II stormed the victory with 52 votes with Turrican 1 claiming just 14.
It may sound like a landslide but most were torn between the two stating the first Turrican game was also a cracking classic,...which it is but only one of the games could be chosen and most of you sided with the sequel.
This month I'm going to place two Amiga shooters side by side,...X-Out and It's sequel Z-Out, which do you think is the better shooter?!, only your votes will determine that,...happy voting!
P.s, I will only count the votes stated in the comments below and on the Youtube video.

Well, during the last 17 years i played all the console and coin-op shooters, and z-out is undoubtely one of the best ever in the r-type style, all systems included. Infinitly better than x-out too.

Both terrible :P

And i presume that you're going to tell me that it is an insult you tell you that someone pretending that z-out is terrible fell on his head ? Irony irony eh eh. But by reading you here i understand better the kind of guy you are. Shooters are my type of game (i am developping an universal game launcher, i tried ALL of them), z-out is perfection.

People also tend to forget that this gem can also be played at 2 simultaneously, and they shouldn't !

Z-Out has the Giger levels but X-Out has awesome music and the underwater concept is more interesting and graphically more impressive, and the multitude of upgrade options are cool. I also like how there's a 3d effect when flying (or rather, diving) up or down.

Both games are good play.. Played both on my Amiga back in the day, and now emulation equally... I don't consider either are better than the other.

It's once a month roughly round the 15th and it will continue so long as there is interest with the viewers wanting to vote.
Just to say though it just doesn't cover Amiga games, I also choose games from other formats, be sure to sub to my Youtube channel and you'll be automatically updated

I can announce X-Out gained the victory with 20 votes with Z-Out claiming 15, Z-Out was storming ahead at the beginning by 12 votes to 5 but then X-Out started to crawl back to the point it was 14 all but in the end it overtook Z-Out and claimed the victory,...nowhere near as many votes this time as the previous comparrison (Turrican vs Turrican II) but maybe it was all down to not many liking those games.
